For the last day in Paris, I wanted to make sure that I visited Chinatown. Jennifer was kind enough to show me around. Before that though, I had to get some macaroons for my family back home. The group met up and we went to Laduree. I also wanted to try Pierre Herme because my French teacher recommended it to me.
one yelp user described these as precious jewels they delicately pack into boxes.
Jasmine, Wasabi, Pistachio-Apricot, Berries: all very creamy and yummy
Afterward, we went to chinatown using the metro line 14. It's the newest and doesn't need a conductor to operate. It's very clean and the air flow in the stations feel like a natural air-conditioning. We walked around and I can really say that "chinatown" just means a lot of asians live in the area and there's a bunch of asian stores. The architecture and environment indicates nothing special about the area. It does differentiate itself from the rest of Paris with it's high sky scrapers.

After I got back, we went out for dinner at 7pm. We walked to the Quartier Latin to get dinner.
the walk there was nice, I caught a rainbow on the way.

Rib eye, fries, salad. The steak had a lot of fat, unfortunately.
